How do I turn off a proxy server? Need help disabling it! or How do I turn off a proxy server? Can't

bro, i had this exact problem!
turns out my VPN was overriding everything.

if you’re using a VPN, disconnect it first.
then go to Control Panel > Internet Options > Connections tab > LAN settings.
uncheck "Use a proxy server for your LAN."

also, check for any weird browser extensions. they can mess with proxies too.
